The worldbuilding is sparse but functional. We know about abyssal invasions, job changes, higher academies, and military ranks. Enough to follow the plot. I hope deeper layers appear later, like politics of the seven cities or the abyss itself.
I felt genuinely tense when Shi Lan was walking alone through the misty, dark planet at night. The description of the prison looking like a “terrifying large mouth ready to devour” really set the mood. For someone who transmigrated into a horror-prone role, her fear felt authentic. And the fact that she still chose to go in because it was safer than the plot — that’s some tragic logic I can’t help but respect.
I’m a little worried the story might fall into the trap of making the female lead too perfect. So far Bai Suihe is clever and adaptable, but she also has moments of genuine helplessness (like when she can’t think of a way to escape). That balance is good. I hope the author lets her make mistakes too. Otherwise the “villain wife” revenge setup loses teeth.
